Dysport Specialist

What is Dysport?

Dysport is a prescription injection based on the botulinum neurotoxin. It works much like Botox® in that it decreases the muscle activity that causes lines and wrinkles to etch into your face.

What areas can Dysport treat?

Dysport is proven to smooth the appearance of frown lines between your eyebrows and horizontal lines on your forehead. The injections can also soften lines around your eyes known as crow’s feet.

Dysport leaves the rest of your face untreated and working normally, so you don’t have an artificially “frozen” look.

How successful is Dysport in treating wrinkles?

Dysport is approved in 69 countries and has 25 years of clinical experience behind it. Up to 97% of people who use Dysport say they’d use it again to achieve a naturally more youthful look.

How is Dysport administered?

William Rowland administers one injection into each of five points between and above the eyebrows to temporarily halt muscle contractions that cause wrinkles. He also applies several injections around the sides of your eyes, should you choose to have your crow’s feet treated as well.

The injections do involve a needle and feel like a brief pinch. Most people tolerate the treatment well, but if you’re concerned about discomfort, talk to the team at Santa Fe Skin Vitality about using a topical numbing cream or ice to ease your pain.

How soon will I see results of Dysport and how long do the results last?

Dysport is a temporary strategy for reducing the appearance of wrinkles. You’ll see the effects of the injections in just two to three days, and these positive effects last up to four months. If you want to maintain your new, smooth look, regular retreatments are necessary.

What downtime is associated with Dysport injections?

Dysport injections require no downtime, so you can go right back to work, school, or other daily activities following the 20-minute treatment session. You may have light bruising or redness at the injection sites, but these are easily covered with makeup and fade quickly.
